28
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: bitter custody battle. At the time of his murder. Just

29
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 1: minutes after leaving Shanna's house, just over two miles from

30
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: her home, in a quiet neighborhood with few security cameras,

31
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: attire was rolled out into the street. Jared got out

32
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: of his car to move it and was shot dead.

33
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: His two year old daughter sat in the car, strapped

34
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: into her car seat alone for three minutes before someone

35
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: came to help. I was shocked. I felt at the

36
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: floor because I was devastated for what I was going

37
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 1: to have to tell my kids. Jared died in that street,

38
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: leaving behind four children and a heartbroken family. They were

39
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: I think in shock. Join me right now, special guest,

40
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: this is Jared's wife, Kirsten Brdigan. You have two year

41
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: old Bexley and at the time six month old London.

42
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: Bexley was actually strapped in the car while her dad

43
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: was shot, and she keeps saying I believe boom boom

44
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: or bang bang. Yeah, she often says boom boom, boom,

45
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: daddy on the ground when she talks about that night.

46
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, we were just hearing your husband's

47
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: ex wife who was crying about the death of her ex.

48
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: Now that evening, let me understand, Jared had just left

49
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: her house right brag. She had just dropped Boom and

50
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: Addie back off at her home. His twins. Yeah, nine

51
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: years old at the time. Yes, was that, may I

52
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,839
Speaker 1: ask you, Kirsten. Was that a scheduled visit? Yes? So,

53
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: Jared and Shanna had fifty fifty custody of Liam and Abbey,

54
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: so every other week they were with the alternating parents.

55
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: So when they were with their mom, Jared would pick

56
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: them up every Wednesday that she had them to take

57
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: them out on what was referred to as date nights,

58
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: and then when they were at our home for the week,

59
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: Shannon would come to our house and pick them up

60
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: Wednesday nights before date night. And it was every single week,

61
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: So you would have them when you're home for a week,

62
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 1: and then they go back to their mom. Can I

63
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 1: back Chack just a little bit, Kurston, could you tell

64
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: me how you and Jared met? Yeah, so I had

65
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: moved out to Charlotte, North Carolina to start working for

66
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: Microsoft and News SI Area. A friend it's like, hey,

67
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 1: should you know, just get on this dating app and

68
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: it's a good way to meet people. So I did,

69
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: and Jared's profile was one of the first ones that

70
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 1: I saw. And what impressed me about him is that

71
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: his first picture with him and Leam and Abbey. He

72
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 1: was proud to be a dad. He's proud of his kids,

73
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: and he made it clear like these people are important

74
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: to me and it's a package deal. Anyway, we started

75
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: talking and we talked on the phone for hours, and

76
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: then he actually drove six and a half hours from

77
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: Florida up to Charlotte to take me on a date.

78
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: And the rest is history. Okay, wait a minute, he drove.

79
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 1: He just gave me chill bumps down my right arm.

80
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,039
Speaker 1: He drove six and a half hours from Florida to

81
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: Charlotte to take you on a date. He did. Yeah,

82
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: that must have been some day. What did you do

83
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: on the day? Everything? But we fit in as much

84
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: as we could. We often referred to it as a

85
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: marathon date because we met at a museum, winner on

86
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: the museum for a few hours, and we went out

87
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: and got some food and we went bowling, and then

88
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: we tried to an escape or like we did everything.

89
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: We just couldn't get enough time together, especially since you know,

90
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 1: it was a long distance relationships, so we made the

91
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 1: most of the time that we opposendgether. You know, something

92
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: you just said really sticks out of my mind. We

93
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: just couldn't get enough time together. Yeah, when did you

94
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: know that he was the one? I think it's when

95
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: I met as kids. Just seeing him as a dad,

96
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: you know, the way he treated me, I knew how

97
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: that wasn't it was amazing. But then to see him

98
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: as a father and how invested he was in them,

99
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: how much she loved them, that just kind of stealed

100
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: it from me. You know, Like I wanted to have children,

101
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 1: I wanted to have a family, and I wanted someone

102
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: who wanted it just as much as I did. And

103
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: it was clear that that he shared those values and

104
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: those those desires. You know, as much as you might

105
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 1: love somebody if they don't want a family and you do,

106
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 1: or vice versa, that's a pretty good, pretty big obstacle

107
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: to overcome, and so you knew at the very beginning

108
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: he wanted a family and he loved his children. Yeah,

109
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: it was very clear. How long for the first time

110
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: you started dating until you guys got married. We started

111
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: dating January February of two thousand seventeen, and we got

112
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 1: married in October of that same year, so it was

113
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: pretty quick ten months about. Yeah. Now, at the time

114
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: you guys met, he was already divorced, right, Yeah, he's

115
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: been divorced for a couple of years at that point. Okay,

116
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: how was the relationship between him and his ex Shanna

117
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: Gardner Fernandez, Yeah, it was a very combative relationship. In

118
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: her interview, she refers to, you know, we had a

119
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: happy moments. I don't recall any happy moments between the

120
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: two households that that was not a thing. What was

121
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: there the I mean, I understand the drama, back and forth,

122
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: back and forth, wake on, wake off, and the scheduling.

123
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: I mean, that's why he couldn't mist he couldn't move

124
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: to be with you in Charlotte because his children in Florida.

125
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: Have you ever seen, Okay, down the rabbit hole? Have

126
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: you ever seen parent trap? Yes? I have. Okay, have

127
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: you seen the remake? I don't think so. You know,

128
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: there's two. There's the old one with Hailey Meals and

129
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: then there's the new one with Lindsay Lohan. Oh, Linda,

130
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: Lindsay Lohan. One to me is the original. I guess

131
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: you gotta look at the old one, just say you

132
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: can compare and contrast. But remember when he was about

133
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: to he was going to get married to the new woman.

134
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: She's such a brite, okay, And she said to him

135
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: about his children, Lindsay Lohan, it's either them or me,

136
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: and he paused for like two seconds, and he went them.

137
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: I picked them. I mean, I love my husband so much,

138
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: but there's really no question it's them. It's them, because

139
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,959
Speaker 1: there's just some thing about a mom and her children.

140
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: It's it's them. So he was not He could not

00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: long I would spend with victims and witnesses and their families.

157
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it would be an all night ordeal because

158
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: I have to go all the way to the back

159
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: to get to the beginning of the story, to get

160
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: to where we are right now. What do you want

161
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: to ask Kirsten, Well, I'd like to ask Kriston. Well,

162
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: I've been talking to Kristal a lot, so you know,

163
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: it's I guess, like, how are you feeling about the

164
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 1: pace of the investigation at this point? You know, do

165
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: you feel do you feel hopeful that they are getting

166
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: close to finding anything or finding any suspects in this

167
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,079
Speaker 1: What is your feeling about that. I have a lot

168
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: of faith in the detectives that are working the case.

169
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 1: I do know that they're working hard. I know that

170
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: they're invested and they care about our families that very

171
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: strongly from them. Unfortunately, just the process of gathering evidence,

172
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: of waiting for DNA, of waiting for cell data, that

173
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: takes a lot of time, and I know they're equally

174
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: as frustrated with how long that takes as I am.

175
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: But I do believe they're they're doing their best, they're

176
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: working hard, and they haven't forgotten about Jared. And I

177
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: know your husband also recently had a birthday. His birthday

178
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: passed recently, which was mere Father's Day, and would you

179
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 1: be able to tell us a little bit about how

180
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: what that was like for you, kind of reaching that

181
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: milestone with Adam here. Yeah, honestly, the whole month of

182
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: June was it really hard because as you said, there

183
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: was Father's Day and then on the twenty ninth was

184
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: Jared's birthday. So I had been thinking about ways that

185
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 1: we could think it special and honor him. And Jared

186
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,719
Speaker 1: was always the guy that was helping a neighbor. I

187
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: can't even count the times he lent tools to people,

188
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,599
Speaker 1: and when he lent the tools, he often doesn't go

189
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: to their house and show them how to use it

190
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: and then just get involved in their projects. So the

191
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: girls and I set out in months in June to

192
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: do access service in Jared's name. You know, he turned

193
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: thirty four or would have been thirty four, So we

194
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: did thirty four access service in honor of Jared, and

195
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: we invited the community to do the same. So there

196
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: was people all over the country doing access service in

197
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 1: honor of Jared. You know, that week was made a

198
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: little bit harder because the local news station decided to

199
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 1: interview with X Life, which in and of itself I

200
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: have no problem with. What upset me is that they

201
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 1: picked his birthday week to tise it for five days

202
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: and then air the day afters verse, like a week

203
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: that's already extremely hard. They decided to do that, and

204
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: I let them know, Hey, don't do this to a

205
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: victims family in the future. This is not okay. That's

206
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: an extremely emotional of sensitive time. Do it any other week,

207
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: but not you know, an anniversary or a birthday. That's

208
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: just not appropriate. Now I'm hearing what you're saying, Kirsten

209
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 1: Branigan with me. This is Jared's wife also with me,

210
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: Rebecca Rosenberg from Fox News Digital, Anne York Post, Jo

211
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: Scott Morgan, Jacksonville State University, forensics expert, doctor Angie Arnold,

212
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: psychiatrists out of Atlanta, and high profile lawyer out of Atlanta,

213
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: Daryl Cohen Kristen. You were talking about the terse exchanges,

214
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: the contentious relationship between your family Jared and his ex.

215
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: Didn't that seep into the children's life? Didn't they know

216
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: about the hostility and what was it over? They did?

217
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 1: You know? And that was something that Jared and I

218
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 1: we thought so hard to keep Leam and Abbey out

219
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: of things. There's so many text messages and emails where

220
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: we plead with his ex wife and her husband did

221
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 1: not involve the children, because often they would come home

222
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 1: saying mom and Mario said X. And we would be like,

223
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: you shouldn't even be involved in these conversations and would

224
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: again reach out to his ex wife and her husband

225
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: and ask them he don't involve the kids, like, let's

226
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: keep this between adults. They don't deserve to be pulled

227
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: into this. So it's heart leaching, you know, having a

228
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: split home like split family spending one week here and

229
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: one week there. It's hard enough. They don't need the

230
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: added stress of being involved in adult conversation. What was

231
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: the ongoing battle? I mean, did they X? What full

232
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: custody and why? I mean, the court records will speak

233
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: for themselves. It is very combative over a few of things.

234
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: You know, one week as this, the next month it's

235
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: something else. She took us to court often, as the

236
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: record will show. And one thing that just continually surprised

237
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: us and our attorney was the language that was used

238
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: in the motions filed. It was not professional. It had

239
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: outrageous claims such as the father doesn't care for his

240
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: childlizard eyes, which is absolutely false, and these are just

241
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: so skewed. It was just shocking that they would even

242
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: put that type of language in something, especially when it

243
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: was based on why absolutely nothing nays take a listen

244
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: to our friends at crime online dot com. Just twelve

245
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: days after Jared Bridigan was gunned down in front of

246
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: his two year old daughter, his widow received an email

247
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: from his ex wife asking for his death certificate. The

248
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: terst email sent to Kirsten Bridegain on February twenty eighth

249
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: by Shanna Gardner Fernandez said, quote, my attorney has requested

250
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: a copy of Jared's death certificate for the family court.

251
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: You can send it to me or to him and

252
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: his paralegal directly, whichever you prefer. The thirty one year

253
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: old widow said she was shocked by the email. I

254
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: was in my car, My hands were shaking, my heart

255
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: was beating so fast. I was like, who does this?

256
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: This is so evil. Here I am planning a funeral

257
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 1: and she's asking for a death certificate to Daryl Cohen

258
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: joining me, high profile lawyer that practices all over the country.

259
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: You can find him at Daryl Cohen dot TV. Daryl,

260
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,119
Speaker 1: can't you go to public records and get a death certificate?

261
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: Of course you can, Nancy, But that's not what this

262
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: was designed to do. This was designed to take the

263
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: dagger and drop it deeper and deeper and deeper, and

264
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: then twist it and then make sure you twist it

265
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: some more. That's what this is about. Nothing else, nothing more.

266
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: At this point, you know, Daryl Coh and I know

267
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 1: you're a high profile lawyer, but I was going to

268
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: you for a legal question about how you get a

269
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: death certificate. It's really easy you go to public records

270
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: and you have to pay about five dollars for the

271
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: xerox copy. But doctor Angela Arnold, although he is a

272
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: JD not an MD psychiatrist like you, he may be

273
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: right Doctor Angie, Oh, I think he's I think he's

274
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: right on Nancy. We can, all of us can look

275
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:08,959
Speaker 1: at human behavior, and as this story unfolds, it's just

276
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: it's everything that this ex wife does, from from keeping

277
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 1: them in court while they you know, while he was alive,

278
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: now to this it's just it's so abusive. It's abusive

279
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: to the to the mother of the children, and his wife.

280
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it's his widow, it's it's to me, it's horrific.

281
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 1: And I think that as human beings, we can all

282
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,959
Speaker 1: see this, and I think that's why Darrel was speaking

283
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: to that. I just am trying to imagine Kristen Kirsten

284
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: right again, is with us, guys. This is Jared's widow

285
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 1: and the mother of two of his children. He was

286
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: not even married yet. And if she has a lawyer

287
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: who's directing her to get a death certificate, she could

288
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 1: just get one from county records. It's not hard. But

289
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: she called you while you were planning the funeral for

290
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 1: you to send her a death certificate. Yeah, and that's

291
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: that's why I was upset. But I a lot of

292
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 1: the time she wouldn't even talk to without her attorney.

293
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 1: She'd have her stay talked to my attorney, email my attorney.

294
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: Yet she reaches out to me personally asked for a

295
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: death certificate that I don't even have copies of yet,

296
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: Like I didn't have any at that point in time.

297
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: She already filed through her attorney two days prior on

298
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 1: the I think it was the twenty faith off the

299
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 1: double check that date. Yeah, the twenty fits. She already

300
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: filed the suggestion of death with family courts, that was

301
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: already done. And in addition to that email a few

302
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 1: minutes prior, email me asking me to return library book.

303
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, as a matter of fact, take a listen

304
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: to again our friends at crime online dot com. Eight

305
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 1: minutes before sending an email message requesting the death certificate

306
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 1: of Jared Bradigan, his ex wife, Shanna Gardner Fernandez sent

307
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: another email to Kirsht and Brine again. This email asked

308
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: the grieving widow to return a set of school library

309
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: books that were borrowed by the twins. Shanna wrote, quote,

310
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: you can drop them off at any public library and

311
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 1: they will return them to Miss Stacy or return them

312
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 1: to the school directly. Un Christian Bright again said that

313
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: after losing her husband in such a brutal way and

314
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: only twelve days earlier, returning a couple of library books

315
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,640
Speaker 1: wasn't on her list of priorities at the time. Okay,

316
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: let me understand, because, Kirsten, when my fiance was murdered,

317
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 1: I dropped out of school. I couldn't eat, didn't eat,

318
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 1: stopped everything. I couldn't even think straight. And I don't

319
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: know how long really haven't counted up the months that

320
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: I was like that. But I didn't have children that

321
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 1: I had to be strong for at that time. You do,

322
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 1: so let me understand this. While you're planning the funeral,

323
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: you get an email from the X about returning library books. Yeah,

324
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 1: and to me, that was just her pouring salt in

325
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 1: the wound. She didn't care how I was failing. She

326
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 1: didn't seem to care about anything except sending those emails

327
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 1: to me. Have you had contact with her since the murder? Yes,

328
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 1: I have. There's been text messages. I've even seen her

329
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: in person the following day or two after, and multiple

330
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 1: text messages since then regarding the majority of them are

331
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 1: me requesting the FaceTime with William and Abbey, most of

332
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: which have gone either ignored or the response has been no.

333
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 1: Since April, Kristen, what happened in your world the night

334
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 1: that Jared was murdyred? You were at home with the children?

335
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: What exactly? So? Our youngest daughter London had started going

336
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 1: to bed, you know, order doing sleep training, and she

337
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: would go to bed, you know, before seven pm. So

338
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: I wasn't on date night with Jared and kids, but

339
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 1: Becksley always went with him. She was always there. And

340
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: so he had called me right after he dropped him

341
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 1: an Abbey off at their mom's house and just said

342
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: we had a good date night. Beckfully said that they

343
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,239
Speaker 1: got ice cream and she was still eating it, and

344
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: then you know, she said, okay, I love You'll see

345
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: you soon. And then time kept going and I started

346
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: to feel on eavy. I kept looking at the clock, thinking,

347
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,719
Speaker 1: as you should be home by now, He's always home

348
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 1: by now. Something's not right. And my parents were our

349
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 1: home and I remember telling them like I know something's wrong,

350
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: Like something is not okay. I kept calling and calling.

351
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: I texted, and it's not like him to pick not

352
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: pick up, especially if he's in the car, like he's

353
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: not doing something else, he's just driving. He would answer

354
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:02,400
Speaker 1: his phone. I started looking at traffic reports to see

355
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 1: if there was an accident or anything, and wasn't see anything.

356
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: So I got in the car. I took my mom

357
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: with me and my dad stayed at home with London,

358
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: and started driving out to the beach where I knew

359
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: he had been last you know, he had just dropped

360
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 1: with him an abby off at the last point I

361
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 1: knew he was, so I started driving that way and

362
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 1: while I was driving, I kept calling his phone, and

363
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 1: after you know, four or five tries, it picked up.

364
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: So it wasn't jeared. It was a police officer who

365
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 1: just kept telling me and coming to the station as

366
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: I kept asking if my husband okay, my husband okay,

367
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 1: and he said, please come to the Jacksonville Beach Police Department.

368
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: Your daughter's fine, But he would not answer me about

369
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,719
Speaker 1: my husband, and that just confirmed me Jared was not okay.

370
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 1: My mom was trying to call me down. She said,

371
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 1: nabs an accident. You know, we don't know what happened,

372
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 1: but I knew. I knew when I gut that Jared

373
00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: wasn't okay. And when we got there, I saw Bexley

374
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: and then it clicks. I'm like, if this was a

375
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: car accident, Bexley would be taken to the hospital to

376
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: get checked out. Like this is not a car accident,

377
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 1: because why is she here at the station? And then

378
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: it was a long night. I had wait a while

379
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 1: until they confirmed that Jared had been killed, talk to detectives.

380
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: I had to call itge family that night. So it was,

381
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 1: you know, like my whole world just came crashing down.

382
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 1: And I never remember the Saint Kirsten who told you

383
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: that Jared had been killed? A detective informed me. You know,

384
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: at first, when I was sitting in the break room

385
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: at the police station with my daughter, my mom, a

386
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 1: female officer, I kept asking, like what happened? Can I

387
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: see him? You know, I didn't know for sure if

388
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: he had died. I didn't know any details that. They

389
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: just told me it's a death investigation, and I said,

390
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,239
Speaker 1: is it him or someone else? They wouldn't answer. They

391
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: asked me to what my husband looked like. So then

392
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 1: after a while I was taken into another room away

393
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: from my daughter and my mom and informed that Jared

394
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:17,199
Speaker 1: hasn't shot. Jessica Morgan is joining me, not just professor forensic's,

395
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: an author and hosts, but a death investigator, you know,

396
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: Joe Scott. Hearing Kirsten describe that night, it just makes

397
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: my chest hurt, imagining her in the car and not

398
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 1: being able to find Jared and wonder where's Beckley where?

399
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: And then they say Becksey's all right? And then why

400
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 1: do I have to go to the police station? And

401
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: nobody will tell her? And the mad rush to get

402
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 1: to the police station, and then getting there and nobody

403
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: will tell her. But yet she knows, she knows, but

404
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 1: she doesn't want to know. I have dealt with so

405
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: many crime victims and they know. I don't know how

406
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: they know. I don't know how I knew, but I knew.

407
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 1: How often have you encountered that, Joe Scott? Very often?

408
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: And you know, when people's hearts are knwed together in

409
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: love like that, I think that that you have a

410
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: you have a sense about you of what's happening with

411
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,439
Speaker 1: the other person, and it's an overwhelming I've seen it

412
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 1: played out in you know, in my world as a

413
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: death investigator, over and over and over again, and it

414
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 1: does happen. And it's quite striking, you know, because it

415
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 1: there's that sense of dread. You know that that this

416
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: horrible thing, this news, even though it hasn't officially been

417
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 1: delivered to you, Um, you know that it's it's it's

418
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,360
Speaker 1: there because you know you're running through all of these

419
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: scenarios as as a victim of what had happened, what

420
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: had happened, and suddenly you know you're worsening fruition right

421
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 1: for your eyes. Kirsten, did you go back to the scene,

422
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: Did you go back and see where you're husband was ambushed? No?

423
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 1: In fact, when I left the police station, and I

424
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: was there several days in a row, I had to

425
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: go another way. I couldn't. I couldn't go there. I didn't.

426
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 1: I didn't know if there would still be blood on

427
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,719
Speaker 1: the street. I didn't. I didn't want to go there. Um.

428
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: It wasn't until a few weeks after that I went

429
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,920
Speaker 1: back with a friend because I had printed a big

430
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: sign of the truck asking for people to call in

431
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 1: if they knew and thing, and I put it on

432
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: that street. And that was the first time I was back,

433
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 1: and I to this day, avoid that road. Can I

434
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: tell you something, I've never gone to the scene where

435
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,719
Speaker 1: my fiance was murder and I don't want to. I

436
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: don't want to see it. I heart's enough as it is.

437
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: I don't want to go back and see that and

438
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: have that in my mind too. So I completely understand.

439
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: And for me it was just my own pain. You're

440
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 1: having to feel the pain and your children too. Rebecca

441
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 1: Rosenberg joining us from Fox News Digital and New York Post.

442
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: Rebecca described to me the scene and what we believe

443
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 1: happened the night Jared was ambushed and murdered. Okay, so um,

444
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: he had just dropped his children off at his ex

445
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 1: wife and he was maybe five to ten minutes from

446
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 1: her home, but probably closer to five minutes, and he

447
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 1: had Bexley in the car, and he was he just

448
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 1: entered this wooded stretch of Sanctuary Sanctuary Way Boulevard that

449
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 1: even though there's homes on the other side of the woods,

450
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: you really can't see the car or see the houses

451
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 1: from where he was. He encountered a tire in the road.

452
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: In order to continue down that road, he had to

453
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: get out of the car to move the tire. When

454
00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 1: he stepped out of the car, he was shot, peated

455
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: Lee in front of his in front of Bexley, and

456
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: the assailant fled and just three minutes later a good

457
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: samaritan pulled up and got Baxley out of the car

458
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,640
Speaker 1: and the police were called. But there's no surveillance footage.

459
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 1: There was I believe they ring doorbell that captured the

460
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: sounds of the shot, so they know exactly when he

461
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 1: was killed. But there's no surveillance footage of the actual crime.

462
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:37,120
Speaker 1: And there is a an F one fifty truck that

463
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: was captured I guess near there, and the police are

464
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: calling it a vehicle of interest in the crime. I'm

465
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: very curious. Take a listen to our cut twenty four

466
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: our friends at w j A x SO. I asked

467
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: Shanna at the question did you have anything to do

468
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,479
Speaker 1: with Jared's murder? No, I did not have anything to

469
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: do with his murder. Shannah says she has no idea

470
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: if the murder was targeted or what Jared was involved in,

471
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 1: saying they ran in different circles. But actually News Jack's

472
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: reported in June Shannah had hired criminal defense attorney Hank Cox.

473
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: He was referred to me by several friends and ultimately

474
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: my kids images and videos were being used in the

475
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: media without consent. Shannah said Cox was hired to protect

476
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: her kids. I asked her if she thinks she will

477
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: face criminal charges. She says no, that she's cooperated with detectives.

478
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: Let's talk about that Ford f one fifty take lest

479
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: to our cut to our friends at w j XT.

480
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 1: Before his death, Ryan against twins from a previous marriage,

481
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 1: had just been dropped off and he was taking a

482
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 1: routine round home. Actually talked to him on the phone

483
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: right after he dropped his twins off, and he just

484
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: told me that they had had a good day. A

485
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: home security camera picked up gunshots that rang out around

486
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 1: the same time that Bryan again was murdered. Right Agan's

487
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 1: two year old daughter was in the car when her

488
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: father was murdered, and she told her mother this, so

489
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 1: she'll say, you know, boom, boom, boom, and then she'll

490
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 1: say daddy on the ground. So far, no arrests have

491
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: been made. A possible clue, a blue F one fifty

492
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: pickup truck is caught on a nearby surveillance camera. With

493
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: each passing day, a reward of five thousand dollars end

494
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: of twenty five thousand dollars is being offered for information

495
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: leading to the arrest of the murderer or murderers. Bright

496
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: Again's family waits for closure, wondering who killed this father, husband, son,

497
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: and friend. You know what I'm thinking, specifically, Jessica Morgan,

498
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: Professor forensics, Jackson State University and author of the Molly

499
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: Tibots case and then the Kendra Hatcher case, both of

500
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: them murders, both of them solved after a distinctive marking

501
00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: was saying on the purp's vehicle. Molly Tipbots was raped

502
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: and murdered as she was jogging. Kendrew was going into

503
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: her high rise parking deck when she was followed by

504
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: a vehicle that had a marking on the side of it,

505
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: much as in the Molly Tibbots case. Joe Scott, how

506
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 1: can we use the video of that four f one fifty.

507
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 1: It's you know, the images that I have seen, the

508
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: screen captures that I've seen have been grainy at best,

509
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: and I think that they're going to have to truly

510
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: be enhanced. However, However, this is the saving grace I

511
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 1: think from an evidentiary stand What's fascinating is the fact

512
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 1: that we've got this tire and it's not just a

513
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: tire with the wheel, and they're going to be identifiers

514
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: on this thing, Nancy, that are very specific to points

515
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: of origin relative to that tire. Could you please break

516
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: it down in regular talk, Where was the tire bought?

517
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: What kind of tire was it? Are there prints on it?

518
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: Can we trace it back to a particular store, And

519
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 1: just looking at the image of the tire, there is

520
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: where on the tread you know it's been worn down. However,

521
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 1: each tire has a dot number that's assigned to it

522
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: that gives it, that gives it back to a specific

523
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: location or origin of that tire. Who when it was manufactured,

524
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: how long it's been around, and what distributor, what local distributor,

525
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: and then we start narrowing down neighborhoods and who may

526
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: have bought it and when. Then we start looking for

527
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: surveillance video if it even still exists based on the tread,

528
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: it may not still exist, but maybe it does. And

529
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: if you buy tires there once, I always get tires

530
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 1: at the same place. Always has there been a repeat

531
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: customer that gets that same tire, that same type that's

532
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yeah, and not only that, but there's

533
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: a rim associated with this, Nancy, a rim the wheel

534
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: in the center that was also there as well. And

535
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: that's quite fascinating because that's got specific markings on it,

536
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: not only markings but tool markings, Nancy, because it didn't

537
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 1: have the nuts with it. It's been dropped off. If

538
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 1: you can tie that back and put that into the

539
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: hands potential perpetrated as powerful of them crime stories with

540
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: Nancy Grace, I want to go back to Jared's wife,

541
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: the mother of two of his children, joining us, Kirsten

542
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 1: Bright again, and as you have heard, this is not

543
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 1: easy for her to discuss, but she's doing it to

544
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: find justice. In fact, you can find her on insta

545
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: at Justice for Jared b at Justice for Jared b B.

546
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 1: As a brother christ and I want to talk about

547
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: if you can bring yourself to do it. There was

548
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 1: there any robbery, was anything taken from him? No, his wallet, stone, watched,

549
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 1: wedding ring, all of that was still at the scene,

550
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: so it did not appear anything was taken. It appears

551
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: that the main point was, or the only point was

552
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: to kill Jared and he was shot. Your husband after

553
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: that marathon day, after a whirlwind romance. You have children together,

554
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 1: and your husband was shot at point blank range. He

555
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: was shot three to four feet away. Yeah, and nothing

556
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 1: was stolen, The car wasn't stolen, nothing, nothing, I you know,

557
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 1: like what it's really hard to process. If not only

558
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:56,720
Speaker 1: did they murderer my husband, a good man, an amazing father,

559
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,359
Speaker 1: he did it in front of our daughters. And if

560
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: this was a set up, if this was planned, they

561
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: knew Bexley would be there because she's always with her

562
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: dad on date nights. Who knew who would know that

563
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: he was dropping the children off, his twins eighty nine

564
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,280
Speaker 1: at the time. Who wouldn't know that he was dropping

565
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: Abbey and Liam off that night? You? Your family? Yeah, myself,

566
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 1: his ex wife and her husband, and then anyone that

567
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 1: was told by one of us three. How far is

568
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:35,799
Speaker 1: the drive from your house to Abbey and Liam's home,

569
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,440
Speaker 1: depending on traffic, thirty five to forty five minutes between

570
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 1: the two homes. Where was the crime scene as it

571
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 1: relates to Abbey and Lilliam's home and your home? Was

572
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 1: it closer to their home, closer to their mom's home. Yes,

573
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 1: so she only lives a few miles down the road

574
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: from where this happened. Jared dropped him off, and then

575
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: he took the route from her house to the on

576
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: lamp that we take every time, and it was, you know,

577
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 1: to get from her house to where he was shot,

578
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,919
Speaker 1: you wind through neighborhoods, so there's cameras all along from

579
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 1: home until this one road is the only stretch from

580
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 1: her house to the highway that there are no cameras.

581
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,760
Speaker 1: Was right there, right there where he was murdered. Where

582
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 1: was the Ford F one fifty coming from when it

583
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 1: was caught on video. I'm not sure where it was

584
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: coming from, but I know that one of the cameras

585
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,799
Speaker 1: that picked it up was on the police station, which

586
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 1: is just around the corner from his ex wife home. Guys,

587
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: take a listen to our cut three our friends at

588
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,359
Speaker 1: w j XT. This is the first time that detectives

589
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 1: are telling us that they believe this murder was a

590
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:47,319
Speaker 1: targeted one. They believe that someone intentionally set out to

591
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,280
Speaker 1: kill this father of four. Detectives obviously very passionate about

592
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 1: solving this case. I've been speaking with them every day

593
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: and they say that they are going to leave no

594
00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 1: stone unturned. This as the family and the community are

595
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 1: really upset and concerned about this. We just found this.

596
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 1: It is a cross that says justice for Jared, showing

597
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: how many people are concerned about this. And just moments

598
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 1: ago we learned that a reward has been increased to

599
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: eight thousand dollars for information leading to an arrest. An

600
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 1: eight thousand dollar reward. Dial nine zero four two seven

601
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 1: zero sixteen sixty one if you have or think you

00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: have information, or eight sixty six eight four five eight

603
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 1: four seven seven eight thousand dollar reward. I also want

604
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: you to hear our cut four our friends at wj EXT.

605
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,760
Speaker 1: This is pretty much where the scene was. Detective Sergeant

606
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 1: to David Young tells us this is where drivers found

607
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,920
Speaker 1: a thirty three year old at Jared Bride Again shot

608
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 1: to death next to his SUV, which was also struck

609
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 1: inside the man's two year old daughter. He says, it's

610
00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:01,320
Speaker 1: a miracle that she wasn't hurt. Anytime there's a child involved, worse,

611
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: you know, the child could have been hit. Yeah, it

612
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 1: gets to you, it does. It gets to you. Bright

613
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: again had his SUV's emergency flashersig and this spare tire

614
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: was in the road, which is why police believe his

615
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: killers set him up. There was a reason there was

616
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: a tire in the middle of the road, so we

617
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 1: think that and that asked me. We think he was targeted.

618
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:29,439
Speaker 1: We believe that the shooter was was less than four

619
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: feet three feet from him. That's cold blooded. Yes, yeah,

620
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: so especially with a two year old in car. So

621
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 1: this person wanted him dead. Yes, was anything stolen? We

622
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 1: don't think this is a robbery. Two. Rebecca Rosenberg joining

623
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: us in Fox News Digital. Is it true that on

624
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 1: one occasion, at least one the deceased data Four Jared

625
00:38:55,560 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 1: Brydakin claims at his ex Shann Gardner, had you a

626
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 1: tracking device on his car and put a voice activated

627
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: recorder in his home. Yes, but it's true during their divorce,

628
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 1: when they were both living in the same home, but

629
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 1: sort of on opposite parts of the house, she had

630
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: put baby mart He allected that she put baby monitors

631
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 1: under One was under one of the children's beds. That

632
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: didn't need to be there. There was already a monitor

633
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: in the room. There was no reason for it to

634
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 1: be hidden in this strange location in addition to what

635
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: was already there. And and she'd also put some sort

636
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: of tracking device on his car, and I just want

637
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 1: to go back a little bit and mention one thing

638
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 1: that I find kind of troubling is um you know,

639
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 1: Chris and her family, they've raised like sixty five thousand

640
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 1: dollars in reward money to help, you know, find any

641
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: information that will lead to this the killer. And even

642
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: though Shena her family, she comes from a very wealthy family.

643
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 1: Her parents have a company that has that earns over

644
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars a year in revenue, they haven't

645
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: contributed a penny to this reward fund. To Christian Bryan again,

646
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 1: do you believe Jared was targeted? I do. Let me

647
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 1: point out to everyone that the ex wife has not

648
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 1: been named a suspect, our person of interest, a target

649
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 1: in any way. Kristen, what can you tell me about

650
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: the reward for information regarding your husband's death? Currently, it's

651
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: a total of fifty five thousand dollars through crime Stoppers,

652
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: where you can remain anonymous. It's fifty thousand dollars for

653
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: a tip leading to an arrest, and then there's an

654
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 1: additional five thousand dollars for a tip leading to an

655
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 1: arrest and conviction through the Bureau of alcohol, tobacco, and

656
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:03,720
Speaker 1: fire arms. So it had started out is three thousand dollars,

657
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 1: and then myself and my brother in law raised money

658
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,280
Speaker 1: to get it up to fifty fifty five thousand dollars.

659
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:15,720
Speaker 1: So the reward is now fifty five thousand dollars. Kirsten,

660
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: do you believe this was a professional hit? And if so,

661
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: why I do? The fact that they knew where to

662
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 1: stop Jared where there would not be cameras, where he

663
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 1: could not just go around the tire. And anyone that

664
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: knows Jared knows that he's a good guy, like he

665
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 1: would stop and move the tire so that someone else

666
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 1: didn't have to you know, someone else wouldn't have to

667
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:45,359
Speaker 1: get their car there's raining and move the tire. They

668
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:49,240
Speaker 1: knew him, they knew his route, they knew his character,

669
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 1: and they planned this and they murdered him in front

670
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: of our daughters. Again, if you have information, please dial

674
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:19,040

00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,399
Speaker 1: you got the Harst part, you know one who's too

676
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:26,080

677
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:30,840
Speaker 1: conversation when she hold hers But Bexley did. Bexley was

678
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 1: Jared Shadow. She loved him so much. Just why she

679
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:39,840
Speaker 1: was always with them. And some days she seems to understand.

680
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,720
Speaker 1: You know, we talk about Dad's in heaven. Gad's body

681
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 1: got hurt. For a while. She she would pull out

682
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,919
Speaker 1: her little play doctor kitt and Sam and go fix

683
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 1: my dad. Oh, we had to talk about Beddy's body

684
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 1: didn't get better. That's a really gone. But we'll see

685
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: him when we're at cheven And some days she seems

686
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,359
Speaker 1: to grasp that. But then other days, like this past week,

687
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 1: they made dinner and it was, you know, a smaller portion,

688
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: and she said, why didn't we meet more? He says,

689
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 1: just those three didn't She asked, when Daddy comes back

690
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:20,399
Speaker 1: to me, make some more. So her understanding and her

691
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 1: grasp of what's happened kind of goes in and out,

692
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: and it's a conversation we have over and over again,

693
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 1: and it's heart Regie Kris, and I'm so sorry, just

694
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry for what you're going through, what your

695
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,080
